to follow Jennifer Bennett of Tennessee and the
Inghrams of Colorado as they travel to complete their Colombian
adoptions. Congratulations to these families!

Social Services Director and
Colombia Program Social Worker Nichole Deal traveled to
Colombia from September 19-25. After experiencing all the
life and culture of Bogota, Colombia, Nichole posed with two
instrumental Children?s Hope Colombia staffers?Lucia Medina
and driver Andres Ospina.
While in Bogota, Nichole had the
opportunity to visit both orphanages from which Children?s
Hope places children and also those which receive
development aid only. This year, funded by CHI?s third
annual Concert for Orphans, Children?s Vision orphanage in
Bogota fulfilled the dream of a marching band with the gift
of needed instruments. This picture: Orphans of Children?s
Vision with orphanage director Janeane Sanderson of
